A husband-and-wife company
Flomaru is a gifting platform built for people who love across borders. Distance separates — it should never stop us from showing up.
We started Flomaru with a familiar ache — missed birthdays, Mother's Day calls from another time zone, anniversaries spent on a screen. All the moments when we wanted to send more than a message, but couldn't find a simple way to do it.
For years, working in flower and gifting marketplaces, we kept hearing the same question from people like us — friends, customers, our own families.
Why can't I send something to my family abroad?
— The question we kept hearing
Like so many immigrants and families living between countries, we knew first-hand how hard it could be to feel present from far away. So we sketched what an honest answer to that question would look like — and started building it ourselves.
Flomaru is long-distance care, made simple, beautiful, and human again.
Traditional international gifting tries to move products across countries. Delays, customs, surprises. We don't do that.
Every city already has talented florists, bakers, and small shops who understand their customers. We connect you with them — you browse in your language, pay in your currency, we coordinate the local fulfilment.
One bouquet, one note, one doorstep at a time.
How it works
Browse in your language. Pay in your currency. We handle the rest.
A vetted florist, baker, or boutique within delivery distance of your recipient.
Fresh, hand-prepared, delivered locally — next-day, with a handwritten note.
Flowers have always carried what words sometimes cannot. They are personal without needing explanation, emotional without being complicated, and meaningful across cultures.
“I miss you.”
“I'm proud of you.”
“I'm sorry.”
“I remembered.”
“I love you.”
A bouquet is often the simplest way to turn a faraway feeling into something real — something they can hold, smell, display, and remember.
As we grow, Flomaru will make it just as easy to send sweets, perfumes, and gourmet gifts. But flowers will always be part of our story.
Two people building Flomaru as both a company and a promise — that care should be easier to send, no matter where your people are.
Co-Founder & CEO
Ali has spent nearly a decade in flower and gifting marketplaces, scaling platforms across countries and working closely with customers, sellers, and local fulfilment teams.
As an immigrant himself, he understands the weight behind every order. Flomaru is his way of making distance feel a little smaller.
Co-Founder & CCO
Amal leads Flomaru's brand, creative direction, and customer experience. Her background in design and storytelling shapes how Flomaru looks, feels, and speaks.
Her belief is simple: gifting should feel beautiful from the moment you choose it to the moment they receive it.
Founding ML Engineer
Arvin studied computer science at the University of Waterloo, where he held multiple research assistant positions. He leads Flomaru's engineering end-to-end — full stack and machine learning.
He believes the best software is quiet — it gets out of the way so people can focus on the moment, not the machine.
Flomaru is growing city by city, country by country. Tell us where your loved ones are, and help shape where we go next.
Every new place we reach means more birthdays remembered, more mothers surprised, more love delivered across distance.
